Energy savings that will blow you away

Since Mitsubishi Electric introduced the concept of using a high speed jet stream to blow water off hands when drying them, instead of using using hot air to evaporate moisture, with the launch of the Jet Towel in 1992, the company has continually developed and enhanced the product.

Mitsubishi has now launched the Generation 8,"which only takes about ten seconds to completely dry hands," explains Fawn Litchfield,Mitsubishi's Jet Towel Executive: "Hot air dryers take so long that most people walk off with still-damp, germy hands."The energy consumption is a fraction of that of an older style dryer. This is partly due to the reduced drying time and partly to the high tech motor - and the new units have an even more efficient motor." A technical analysis shows that this, coupled with the new design, gives a 15% energy reduction, and consequently savings in running costs, compared to earlier Jet Towels." Jet Towel has also always been highly regarded for its quiet operation making it popular in locations such as school dormitories, theatres, spas, hotels and libraries.
